The other thing to consider is that it's not that easy to get horses to crash into solid objects, pila or gladius not withstanding provided the shieldwall was kept intact. It can happen but normally horses are smart enough not to go blindly charging into solid objects regardless of what their riders tell them to do. So it's not like a cohort or whatever would be utterly defenseless once they tossed their pila.<br>
